Blizzard, First Love and a Wife Who Finally Snaps novel Chapter 415

“Alright, as long as it makes you happy.”

Adrian’s dark eyes held a smile. “I’m not trying to bother you. I just wanted to use this drive to talk about a partnership.”

Isabel said, “I don’t work with investors.”

“But your research needs funding, doesn’t it?” When Adrian talked business, he was calm and unhurried. With his years of experience and sharp mind, his negotiation skills were far more compelling than his illogical arguments and shameless pestering.

“I know Richard is funding you, but your best friend is, after all, a foreigner. She can’t really use her immense wealth to back you indefinitely. You’ll have to give her something in return, and besides, that money is still Richard’s.”

“As a businessman, Richard has a certain amount of influence abroad. Word of your X-1 has already gotten out. You say it’s for the public good, but once the drug hits the market, can you really monitor it to ensure it isn't just sold to the highest bidder?”

These were all things Isabel had considered.

Evelyn Caldwell was trustworthy, and her relationship with Richard was solid.

But she knew the simple truth of not putting all her eggs in one basket.

That’s why Julian was also an investor.

Kate Caldwell and old Mr. Foster didn’t have any conflicts, but they weren’t working in lockstep, either.

Westbridge was under old Mr. Foster’s watch.

Kate, on the other hand, was basically required to inspect facilities everywhere.

But the country was vast, and there were always blind spots.

The work she wanted to do required an enormous amount of capital.

And beyond that, connections.

A nationwide network of connections.

Only Adrian could provide that.

“What’s your angle?”
